----------------------------------

The Skyhawk Wrestling Club is a 501(c)(3) non profit organization that teaches the sport of wrestling to 1st through 8th grade children. The SWC was created by the Southridge Wrestling Head Coach 23 years ago to prepare our community's youth athletes for wrestling at the High School level and beyond. 

 

MISSION:  To give young athletes the opportunity to develop both physically (fitness & skill development) and mentally (building self-esteem & determination).  Our desire is that all athletes will develop a love for wrestling, competition, and teamwork.  No experience necessary, and financial assistance is available.

 

The 2023-2024 online registration is now open!

USA Wrestling

All wrestlers need to be USA certified. This is non-negotiable. The USA Wrestling card allows your wrestler to wrestle at all the Metro League tournaments throughout the year, as well as be able to wrestle at ANY USA tournament for an entire year. This not only allows your wrestler to compete during the year, but also has them protected under the USA Wrestling Insurance umbrella that we are registered under. If you have questions about how to register or about the cost and payment ($46) please reach out to the coaching staff to discuss further. If you are a parent who would like to help the coaching staff, you are more than welcome to volunteer your help. Please talk to us on what is needed to become a USA Coach with the program. www.usawmembership.com

 

COMPETITIONS

Tournaments- Saturday and Sunday morning tournaments at various Metro League Locations. If you are interested in having your wrestler compete in USA tournaments, please talk with the coaches about USA tournament schedule.

 

Tournament Schedule 

Tournament schedule is still TBD 

 

REGISTRATION COST:

$130 to register for the entire season, which includes t-shirt and awesome two-piece uniform for your athlete to keep. If you are paying via check on opening night please make payable to “Skyhawk Wrestling Club”.
